OUR PARIS LETTER.

and annoyed with the fog end OF
Boulangism. Note, however, has
been taken that England had l59
ships, more or less big, and all cap
able of smashing and singing,
manned with 10000 boys this time
in "white." With that ring de-
fence. and no channel tunnel, it is
felt, though unexpressed, that the
tight little island must still be q
hard nut to crack. Nj. Weyl, in an
article on the British naval and
mercantile marine states, in the
latter, England is as 10 to /, and in
the former as to 2 in comparison
with France. To maintain her
supremacy on the sea, that writer
asserts: England must expend an
nually two milliard francs, eighty
millions sterling. That's sufficient
to provoke the sudden death of Lord
Randy, however. 1t is calculation
which must have been drawn up by
Jules Verne, when several miles III
the bottom of the sea, or on an eX-
cursion voyage 10 the moon. M.
Weyl concludes that the days of
England as a first-class naval power
are over: he admits her enormous
wealth, the skill of her artisans, the
magnitude of her resources, and the
tenacity of her resolutions. But
these are the elements that make all
nations omnipotent. He also as
sumes, that in q general confagra-
ton, England would be isolated,
and her food importations stopped.
What power could exercise such an
defective blockade" as to close
English ports against American
steamers with corn, pork, canned
meats and fruits?
Mr.. j. G.. Bennett, of the New
York Herald" having purchased
two-thirds of the "Solignani," the
English paper published in this
city, has the right during twelve
months, to experiment on making
that old mortality first edition for
kilograms, destined for the Gle
raid" lie has positively electrified
the French by reminding them in
connection with the issue of the new
loan for the Panama Canal, that
Uncle Sam will no more permit the
French to squat on the Isthmus,
than they did allow Napoleon Ill to
experiment in LATIN race planting
in Mexico. This is the meaning OF
the Munroe doctrine. The article
compares the work of Nj. de Les
seps between Colon and Panama to
what would be the spectacle OF
English capitalists digging a canal
from the Bay of Bscay 10 the Medi-
terranean, across France. The Paris
n. Y. "Herald' concludes, that 90
million American citizens think as
it does. M. de Lesseps has replied
to this as he did in reference tc
Suez, he will make the canal ano
place it under the protection Of civil
lization. "Good," replies Cousir
Jonathan, "but for the Panam;
Canal, shall be, and alone, thu
civilization" As America suffers
from a plethore of cash in her trea'
sury, that even her pension list can
not exhaust, let her buy out thu
project of the grand francois on it
completion. This will save her per
/ haps from being suffocated like tE'
famous Roman lady beneath thu
weight of her jewels. Submit thu

Tribunal. France has never We
